I did have a theory that maybe you swapped with one of the 6350 Dazais-- and somehow got his cooperation, but I didn't think of this.
[ Not at all. ]
Besides, you're telling me this, but you don't exactly have any proof one way or another that your claim is true.
[ HELLO SKEPTIC ]
But I'll ignore that for a completely different question, then.
Was that last puzzle a hint? Apparently you told Moriarty that there weren't any shinigami here, but. . . I was wondering since that clue dealt with them if that was your way of telling us something.
[ That there might be a necromancer and gravekeeper hidden away somewhere nearby. ]
[ She yells that out before letting out a heavy sigh. ] Honestly, I'm really surprised that you even told me the truth about which Dazai you were in the first place. I thought you were going to avoid it.
[ There's an unspoken question of 'why trust me by admitting something so dangerous' there. ]
It's more dangerous to have you going out there and telling everyone "oh, I think Dazai isn't the right Dazai, we have to figure this out!" It's a lot simpler and a lot saver to squish that investigative streak of yours by telling you the truth and also telling you to not fuck up with sharing it. I know you're going to talk, but I can at least warn you to do it in a place without cameras, because if you're overheard by a camera then a certain A-class agent is going to come in here, kill me in front of all of you, and then take over running the game.
And I would like to live long enough to see this through.
It's like 'terrible lying' is a constant with both Atsushis.
[ She's calling both of them out.
Be glad neither of them can hear or see this. ]
But I would like for you not to be dead. And all I really wanted was to be able to see your real self in here -- away from cameras. There is something else I want to confirm, but I don't have any proof of it, so it's easily denied.
[ She'll need to do this on her own as she smiles a little playfully. ]
But you're right, Dazai. Because if I said something just simply based on a hollow theory without any proof. . . there's no point. It's just a baseless accusation. That's why I'll find the proof and make you admit it.
Because I want to know the truth. And I want to be able to do more than last time.
You're right that I should focus on surviving the game, but being able to find out more about the real you-- wanting to see that-- is important to me, too. I'm not just going to focus on one thing. I want to handle both. Because they're equally as important.

[ There honestly isn't any point in telling the others, even more so if things can be made worse because of it. ]
It doesn't benefit me, or any of us for me to tell the others -- and more importantly, the one person I would want to tell is a terrible liar.
